AeroUnion begins A330-operations

Mexican cargo carrier AeroUnion has began operating its first Airbus A330-freighter. The aircraft, A330-300P2F N337QT (791), had arrived at the airline's homebase at Mexico City on 4 June 2024 and started commercial flights a month later.

The Airbus is the first of five A330-300P2Fs the airline will operate. They are coming from partner Avianca Cargo, which has signed a lease-agreement for the aircraft with CDB Aviation in 2022. A year ago, Avianca and AeroUnion signed an extensive cooperation agreement in which the two airlines will work together things like network and fleet strategy.

Last month, AeroUnion retired its final Airbus A300, a -600F. The airline has been operating that type since its launch in 2001. Next to its new A330-300P2F, the fleet is made-up of two Boeing B767-200ERBDSFs.
